M.10.E Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) Solid schedule. Those last 4 games are nice if we need to make up any ground. Pitt/Tenn b2b on a short week is TOUGH Edited May 7, 2020 by M.10.E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitt/Tenn b2b on a short week is TOUGH It’s not just that. The bye week is essentially ruined. We have Indy (physical downhill offense and defense), Patriots (which until Belichick is gone is likely to be a physical squad), Titans (another physical downhill squad on both sides), the Steelers (physical defense is a part of the culture), and then you’ve got the Cowboys talent on defense with a first year Mike Nolan (that hasn’t been figured out yet). Thats a brutal 5 game stretch for sure. Which like you said is only heightened by the short week in between our likely most physical competitions within. That stretch will likely tell us a lot about the 2020 squad and our playoff chances. Edited May 8, 2020 by diamondbull424 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Reed Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 14-2 and have the same # of home primetime games as teams like the bears bills and rams lol cmon...we will now all time under harbaugh have played 14 MNF games. we will have played 2 of those at home and 12 on the road. also annoyed we’ll be hosting our biggest primetime game week 3 vs KC when there’s a very slim chance we’ll have fans there to help us out, but play all our road primetime games late in the year weeks 12 and on when those teams will have their fans back and helping out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have home Thursday game vs the Cowboys in week 13, and then a Monday night game at Cleveland on Monday night of week 14. So that's an 11 day break between games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just get the max 5. Could be wrong but it actually seems like the best teams get more road prime time games to give weaker opponents a better chance to keep it competitive. And KC won the Super Bowl and only got 2 at home 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFlaccoSeagulls Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 We don't leave EST after week 2 and travel the fewest of any team. The stars are aligning this year for us, barring very unforeseen circumstances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way they can play with fans in the stands without a vaccine. At the very earliest that won’t happen until January and then it has to be mass produced so this season will have no fans I can see them trying to push for the Super Bowl to be the first and only game this season having fans and the fan experience. No matter what Football is coming back that’s all that matters. Let’s get the third ring! Edited May 8, 2020 by santiagomn8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Reed Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Fun fact: 6 of the last 7 times the Ravens have played in Pittsburgh it’s been a primetime game. In that same stretch we’ve had the Steelers at M&T on primetime once. 🤨 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you add in the fact this year that 2 of our 3 divisional road games are primetime games and it feels a little ridiculous. Then again CBS devoted an entire night during their feature COVID NFL programming recently to just our only 2 losses of the regular season this year so you get the sense we're not particularly liked and the suits know it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
